Good times. We traveled hours to skate here- such an amazing skate park. It was such a nice day, of course there were a ton of kids.

Went on an overcast saturday. Parking lot was quite busy due to so much baseball! Kids were having fun, adults having fun it was a great happy place. We walked over the great looking pedestrian bridge to the equally impressive concrete skate park. Definitely needed in this town. Stroller friendly in most places but also a very cool trail system between the park and school.

Great trails and plenty of parking! Also has shelters that can be used to host a party or just have lunch and enjoy nature.

The playground is good for kids, the skate park is fun for those who skate (and is well used). The new pedestrian bridge is helpful for getting to that sound of town. But I wish there were more passive natural areas in this park and others around town with simple trails and healthy forests.

A great place to walk along paved trails, skate, or meet up with friends. The Bypass is a safe distance off trail and skate area.

A nice, well maintained and spacious area for playing on the playground or baseball on the fields. Lots of area for picnics and easy access to the YMCA.

What I love about this park is it was empty and we got to relax with our dogs. Seen people go in the baseball field and close the gates to have their dogs without leash. Has a playground that my girls enjoyed. The park was clean and their is public bathroom that is also kept clean. That’s a plus.

This is not a great park. The only reason my family ever goes to this park is because of the Dogwood festival and the July 4th celebrations. I really wish the city would update this park because it’s in a great location.

Recently updated with walking path and skate park. Very nice.

The park seems to have lost so much of its charm since the Y took over. Now, its just another business with a busy, overcrowded parking lot.

Good ball fields: softball, little league and teeball. Little play area for kids and grilling area-pavilions.

Love the new skateboard park

Pa
Review №42

My dog absolutely loves it here. I used to throw her ball a lot here but shes getting quite old and cannot run anywhere near as much but she loves the quiet of it and so much to explore. Playground is lovely angs the whole park has good shade and is very little used. The skate board park is across parking lot and theres talk of moving it to where my dog and I go .. where the old washing pool used to be. I hope all these plans take a long time cause my Dog loves to run off her leash there, since it is safe and well fenced on every side.

Might as well be the Brooks family park. Rude people and horrible little uncontrolled brats running everywhere. Sound like fun......

A nice place to walk my dog that is close to home. I understand the demand for a YMCA, but it changed the whole tenor of the park.

Review №62

I enjoy the paved trail that goes from about Cville Coffee down to Rio Road. If I loop the whole thing, I can get in about 4 miles and top off with coffee and a snack. Safe but enough off the road that you dont notice the traffic for most of the way and feel pleasantly immersed in the woods and meadow.

McIntire Park appears to be the second largest recreational park in Charlottesville, second to Pen Park. It is a few recreational fields and playspaces (with a cool skate park announcing Fun is Free spelled out in steamers on a fence facing 250) and a memorial to Vietnam casualties. The rest is beautifully untouched natural space and trees with subtle navigation by mowed walks. You can get to several spaces where you can no longer tell where the major roads or any structural man-made developments are. Ive seen people drive through the park, which I found odd, given that a walk is relatively easy from end to end. Stopping in the middle of it and laying down in the grass in summer was one of my most cherished early memories from my first days in Cville in July, 2016. Great for kids, hiking, dogs, photography, and just about anything else you might like to do on the grass.
